Abdominal aortic aneurysms can cause duodenal obstruction after vagotomy and pyloroplasty surgery. Barium studies identified the obstruction, and one aneurysm was successfully resected.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Vascular Surgery
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty are surgical procedures that can lead to complications.
  • Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are serious vascular conditions.

Observation:

  • Two patients presented with duodenal obstruction after undergoing truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty.
  • The obstruction was found to be caused by an abdominal aortic aneurysm in both cases.

Findings:

  • Barium examinations successfully identified the location and cause of the duodenal obstruction.
  • Surgical resection of the abdominal aortic aneurysm was successful in one of the two described cases.

Implications:

  • This highlights a rare but significant complication of prior upper gastrointestinal surgery.
